Norsk folkedrakt: Hverdagstøy og festdrakt
Traditional costumes: Everyday clothes and festive garments
Tuesday, February 27
The Special Events Committee is pleased to welcome you to a guided tour of the exhibition of national costumes and traditional garments at Norsk Folkemuseum [The Norwegian Museum of Cultural History].
We have all seen men, women and children dressed in their beautiful national costumes on May 17, Norway’s national day. There is a great variety; each district in Norway has its own special costume. So now it is time to explore the history of these costumes, and the accessories that go with them.
If there is time, we may also have a look at the Folkekunst [Folk art] exhibition.
The museum is open until 16:00. Lunch may be had in the museum’s café. You can have another look at the exhibition on your own, if you like.
DATE/TIME: Tuesday, February 27 at 11:45 (for 12:00). Please be on time.

| SIGN UP: | To Rosemary Hauge by email no later than the deadline Tuesday, February 20. |
